Question

Need hep finding the surface area and volume of the sixth stellation of the icosahedron. I am realllly bumped.

Answer 1

Are you using multi variables and triple integrals to solve this?

Answer 2

this is what i am dealing with. to tell you the truth, I have no idea what you are talking about :P I was asked for a project to find the surface area and volume. is there a formula for this crazy polyhedron?

Answer 3

Are you in Calc 3?

Answer 4

nope, honors geometry. I am a sophmore

Answer 5

What methods do you use to solve volumes of shapes?
What I'm asking is what is the first step?

Answer 6

like for a cone we use V=1/3 BH , for a hemisphere, we use 4/3 pi r^3. pretty basic
pyramid= 1/3 BH

Answer 7

So you are given the formula of shapes for volume. Does the book give you the formula in this case?

Answer 8

no it does not. our teacher was suppose to teach us the formula, but he didn't get around to it or I missed it. and i was sure to pay attention. either way, I have no cue where I am suppose to start.

Answer 9

Sorry I know a different methods but it's too tedious. Wait and ask your teacher tomorrow

Answer 10

alright, thank you
